Cats are very wary and will never approach people they don't like. When a cat lies on your lap or rests on your knees, it means the cat likes you and trusts you a lot. If you've had your cat for a while but still don't know if it likes you, let me teach you how!
blink slowly
When a cat stares at you and blinks slowly, it means that the cat feels very comfortable and safe around you, and may even fall asleep next to you.
Lie on your knees
Cats are very wary; they won't approach people they don't like. When a cat lies on your lap or knees, it means the cat likes you and trusts you a lot.
The tail wraps around your leg
If your cat meows and circles around you while wrapping its tail around your legs and rubbing its head and body against you from time to time, it means that your cat trusts you as its owner and wants to mark its scent on you.
Lick your hair
If two cats have a very good relationship, they will lick each other's fur. If your cat licks your head or hair, it means that your cat considers you family and is cleaning you up!
For cats, who are very wary, the first thing you need to do to gain their trust is to give them enough confidence. During the process of getting to know your cat, never force them; doing so could backfire.
